Last week, we made a delivery of stone cladding on one of our HIAB vehicles to historic Hertfordshire city, St Albans.
In a recent survey, despite its high house prices, St Albans was voted into the top ten places to live in the UK – where residents are the happiest in the country!
St Albans District Council, said: “St Albans City and District is a great place to live with low unemployment and good schools. We would probably have come even higher in the survey if factors such as culture and history had been taken into account.
“The quality of life here in the district is good. We are surrounded by the Green Belt and are also blessed with a large number of green spaces, including Harpenden, (see our previous blog ) Bricket Wood and Nomansland Commons, and parks, such as Verulamium Park. In addition, there are plenty of activities locally for people to enjoy, from sport to theatre. There is also a good social cohesion in the district and people seem to care about their neighbours.”
But being in St Albans comes at a high price. Since the mid seventies, young people born in the area have found it harder and harder to afford to buy a home of their own here. Renting nowadays can be just as expensive as having a mortgage.
Some famous names from St Albans include Stephen Hawking who was educated at St Albans School, comic Benny Hill and ladies favourite – the one with the twinkle in his eyes and cheeky, melt me smile… David Essex.
Our ‘lady blogger’ here at Sussex Transport also attended school in St Albans – which would account for her interesting and intelligent content within our blog pages….
Hart in Hampshire was ranked as the number one place to live in the survey followed by Elmbridge in Surrey and Wokingham in Berkshire.
For a HIAB service with a twinkly smile, call Sussex Transport on 01903 751100 or email us at sales@sussextransport.com . Whilst we can’t promise a David Essex look-a-like… all our drivers will provide a 5 star service!
